Assessing the relationship between environmental factors and malaria vector breeding sites in Swaziland using multi-scale remotely sensed data (Publications)
with high spatial resolution has often resulted in analyses being conducted at coarse scales using open-source, archived remotely sensed data. In the present study, spatial prediction of potential breeding
Spatial analysis of schistosomiasis in Hunan and Jiangxi provinces in the People's Republic of China (Publications)
in Hunan, indicating that schistosomiasis control should target individuals in close proximity to open water sources as they are at highest risk of infection.
Global health essentials (Publications)
Development Goals (SDG) 2030 agenda. Subdivided into 11 parts, devoted each to a macro-topic, the book opens with an introduction to Global Health followed by an overview of the global burden of disease – from
Developing the building blocks to elucidate the impact of the urban exposome on cardiometabolic-pulmonary disease: the EU EXPANSE project (Publications)
EXPANSE will translate its insights and innovations into research and dissemination tools that will be openly accessible via the EXPANSE toolbox. By applying innovative ethics-by-design throughout the project
CNS immune privilege: hiding in plain sight (Publications)

Context-dependent stimulus presentation to freely moving animals in 3D (Publications)
opportunity to track the 3D flight path of free-flying insects and process these data in real-time, opening up the possibility to present dynamic stimuli to free-flying animals. To accommodate for the increased
Isothermal microcalorimetry accurately detects bacteria, tumorous microtissues, and parasitic worms in a label-free well-plate assay (Publications)
monitored and corresponds to a diameter increase of the microtissues from ca 100 to 428mum. This opens new research avenues in cancer research, diagnostics and development of new antitumor drugs. For parasitic
Passive immunoprotection of <em>Plasmodium falciparum</em>-infected mice designates the CyRPA as candidate malaria vaccine antigen (Publications)
malaria. In an endeavor to identify novel vaccine targets, we tested predicted Plasmodium falciparum open reading frames for proteins that elicit parasite-inhibitory Abs. This has led to the identification
Reinvestigation of the <em>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</em> genome annotation by comparison to the genome of a related fungus: <em>Ashbya gossypii</em> (Publications)
syntenic regions leading to an improved annotation. RESULTS: We have identified 23 novel S. cerevisiae open reading frames (ORFs) as syntenic homologs of A. gossypii genes; for all but one, homologs are present
